12th plate of album with 60 19th-century costume plates and 1 drawing of mostly women's historical costumes, featuring a variety of designs for traditional costumes from different parts of the world, as well as costumes for literary characters, such as Esmeralda. This plate consists of a woman wearing a costume for a Goatherd, made up of a dark blue jacket with cream-and-blue details on the neck, lapels and cuffs, over a cream shirt with ruffled neck and cuffs, and a cream skirt with thin, vertical, blue stripes under a blue overskirt tied to the side. She wears a straw hat with a thin garland of roses and leaves and a blue ribbon, blue stockings, and dark-blue low heels with ribbons. She holds a thin bundle of yellow, pink and blue flowers on green stems in her hand.
